Whats wrong with riding a tandem?
The idea never really crossed our mind before we left. But now we can confidently say that we will never go on a tour of this duration on a tandem. Cycling on two separate bikes has given us some space when we needed it (that is after an argument). The anger fades away as you cycle on, which surely wouldn’t happen if you are 30 cm from your partner, the only source and outlet of your angst and frustations. On a more practical note, photo and wee stops do not require any prior discussion. You stop when and where you like. On the downside, it is slower and much easier to loose each other.
